Rhode Island is renowned for its fish & seafood and this restaurant is a must try if ever in the area. Matunuk Oyster Bar is a local favorite for their oysters harvested just off the dock below which are unbelievably sweet, succulent and briny all in one delicious bite. Stuffies (quohogs stuffed with chorizo, peppers, onions and breadcrumbs) as well as clams in chorizo tomato and white bean broth and ahi tuna tacos. What’s missing you ask?
A crisp Spanish northern white wine to wash it all down and sing along happily.

Pale lemon color with a slight green tinge is almost translucent.
Clean and bright aromas of lemon, lime, passion fruit, grass and white blossoms.
Zingy acidity brings the flavors of lemon, lime, minerals, apple, pear, savory thyme saline, gooseberry, grass and white blossom alive. The slight effervescence of this medium bodied wine is just perfection with seafood.
